Variable-speed drive
Here is how the variable-speed drive works:
Transaxle
The transaxle is fully enclosed and runs in oil for reliability. Helical gears are used for quiet operation. The differential design reduces scuffing of the turf during turns because the inside wheels turn slower than the outside wheels (vehicles that have a solid axle shaft must skid the inside wheel when making a turn).
Traction assist (differential lock) is built into the transaxle:
The neutral start safety interlock is provided for the engine ignition system.
Bolt-on cast-aluminum rear axle housings provide an extremely strong supporting structure.
Side-by-side bucket seating
Numerous features offer the operator and passenger a comfortable ride and provide many operating conveniences.
Convenient walk-through operator station
The control location and walk-through platform provide easy entry/exit for operator and passenger.
